One cool feature of Steam is they provide a Harassment Zone for each game you announce. It's a place for people who hate progress to come and crap all over games they haven't even played. No, they won't help you moderate it, but hey, at least you can't delete it!

In Final Fantasy Tactics if a unit gains too much faith they leave your party to go find God. Have you ever wondered what would happen if you had Beast Tongue and got a monster unit to maximum faith? Of course you haven't. No one has.

I gotta hand it to whatever advertising firm Informa hired to make these, there really is something almost poetic about GDC's advertising being "an AI-looking depiction of an industry staple being destroyed with no clear elaboration of what comes after." Masterclass in unintentionally nailing it.

it’s a real shame that the obsession with “canon” and wikipedia-ification of fiction has people playing choice-based games like they’re a problem to be solved rather than a series of choices you have to stand by.

This is probably the line I was most interested to hear voiced. It's one of my favorites in the game, and IMO it gets to the heart of Ramza's entire character.

the thing about asking for a worker owned anything on the web is that the pitch has to account for the fact that the website is going to - innately - be slower to add features, slower to respond to issues, have financial struggles, etc

Your shadow-self is out there, somewhere, lurking. It wears your face but it is NOT you; do not become confused. You will need to identify where it hides and hunt it down. Use a sharp knife and carry salt with you at all times. The heart can be eaten, but at a price.

Saturnalia tied with Pentiment for my favorite game of 2022 while taking on a lot of similar narrative themes! So if you're like me and love sacrifice theory and scapegoating in your horror (or even if you just trust my taste in stories TBH), please run to play it. But not too loudly.

Livvy 🌌 @livvyclosehaul.bsky.social · 4d

LRP: Literally just yesterday I caught myself like this thinking "I should replay Saturnalia this Halloween month" and now I can do so without turning on my Xbox for the first time in months!

I don't care if it's """anachronistic""", I know in my heart that Agrias' polycule has reached levels of dyke drama beyond our comprehension.

if this is what they do to a world famous activist they know is being watched, imagine what they’re doing to young women and girls whose names have never been in the papers

zero prevent surprised to read they are roundly abusing greta thunberg while she’s in detention but making her kiss the israeli flag is just sick. what sick people.

"They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others," the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.

Lorenzo D'Agostino, a journalist and another flotilla participant, said after returning to Istanbul that Thunberg was "wrapped in the Israeli flag and paraded like a trophy" - a scene described with disbelief and anger by those who witnessed it.

Ladd Finalfantasytactics is a transmasc he/him lesbian in my heart. It's truly the only thing that explains him and Alicia and Lavian.
